Tile repair near Strathkinness

Tile repair in Strathkinness, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Strathkinness. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

10 questions to ask before booking

Common questions in Strathkinness

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Are there extra charges for Strathkinness?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Strathkinness included. Travel is included in the price.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
